A question for you experienced Asia hands:

What are the  opportunities for teaching English as a second language (ESL) in SE Asian countries, e.g., Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, etc. (NE Asia, too, actually, i.e., China, Japan, Korea).  I am contemplating retirement, and would love to relocate to Asia and teach English and enjoy the local ladies up close and personal, week in and week out.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

My understanding is that there's a strong demand in many countries. When I was in Vietnam last year, many expats were there teaching English. There's special courses you have to take to establish the credentials. A good resource are the English language newspapers in each country, which will have job openings listed and other good advice.
